The Big Year Leaderboard Update - 3/18/18

Chuck Miller's Speckled Trout Entry

As the 3rd weekend of March passes, so does another weekend of The Big Year.  Again, the weather made for challenging fishing conditions, but there were still some nice fish caught!  While most of the species caught were all freshwater, we did see the first saltwater species entered for The Big Year 2018!  Chuck Miller made his entries for Redfish and Speckled Trout this weekend.  On the freshwater side, there was quite a bit of activity!  Ray Baltz (Bluegill) and Grady Jackson (Largemouth Bass, Bluegill) made their first entries for The Big Year, while David Karcher made his entry for Spotted Bass.

Also, just as a reminder:
Please be sure to submit all CPR entries to nolaffc@gmail.com so we can track them more accurately.
Remember, it isn't the size of the fish that's important, it's the diversity of fish species that will determine the winner.
The time of 1st entry will be the tie-breaker (in the event it is needed).
Most importantly, have fun!

Chuck Miller's Redfish Entry

The Big Year is off to a great start!  I can't wait to see everyone's catches in the upcoming months.  If you haven't had the opportunity to pickup a stamped tournament ID card, please let either myself, A.J. Rosenbohm, or Jimmie Hyatt know so you can participate in The Big Year!  Please take advantage of this tournament, and use it as an opportunity to catch fishes you normally don't pursue within the FFI Gulf Coast Council region.
